If you’re looking for a crochet hat pattern that’s versatile, easy to crochet and has a neater looking band, you’re in the right place. The Basic Bottom-Up Crochet Hat here at B.Hooked is great for donating, gifting and of course, just because.

With this project you’ll learn the fundamentals of crocheting a hat starting at the band and working up to the crown. You’ll learn how to crochet a long, flat piece using a stitch pattern that looks more like classic ribbing and how to start working in rounds. Lastly, you’ll get to practice some basic decreases to make the crown.
